grazioso

The second part (Allegro grazioso, 3-4), although light and cheerful, does not approach the first in originality and depth.

Luitprand's church, we are told, was symmetrical and graceful (grazioso).

The story is that of a little boy, Grazioso, brought up by his grandmother, whom he loves better than all else in the world.

But Grazioso did not approach either to embrace or ask the old woman's blessing.

Therefore tonight she kept an even tighter clasp on Grazioso's hand than usual, her knees were shaking so absurdly.
